NEIGHBORHOOD

Oakland at Your Doorstep

Step outside and you’re in the heart of it all — just across Snow Park from Lake Merritt, with Oakland’s best culture, cuisine, and creative energy surrounding you.

Catch a show at The Fox or Paramount Theatre, explore exhibitions at the Oakland Museum of California, or spend an afternoon reading under the trees at The Gardens at Lake Merritt. When the sun goes down, meet friends for cocktails at Bar Shiru or Sobre Mesa, then head to Alma Bar Cocina, Señor Sisig, or The Lake Chalet for dinner with a view.

From gallery nights and bookshops to neighborhood markets and music venues, this is a walkable, welcoming community that’s as lively — or laid-back — as you want it to be.
